Answer
Correct option: C.
Current
c
(c) When a current is passed through the galvanomejer coil, then a magnetic fieid $B$ is produced at right angles to the plane of the coil, ie, at right angles to the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field $H.$ Under the influence of two crossed magnetic fields $\mathrm{B}$ and $\mathrm{H}$, the magnetic needle of galvanometer undergoes a deflection $\theta$ which is given by the tangent law. Using tangent law, we can find a relation

$I \propto \tan \theta$
Which clearly indicates that tangent. galvanometer is an instrument used for detection of electric current in a circuit.

A container has a base of $50 \mathrm{~cm} \times 5 \mathrm{~cm}$ and height $50 \mathrm{~cm}$, as shown in the figure. It has two parallel electrically conducting walls each of area $50 \mathrm{~cm} \times 50 \mathrm{~cm}$. The remaining walls of the container are thin and non-conducting. The container is being filled with a liquid of dielectric constant $3$ at a uniform rate of $250 \mathrm{~cm}^3 \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$. What is the value of the capacitance of the container after $10$ seconds? [Given: Permittivity of free space $\in_0=9 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{C}^2 \mathrm{~N}^{-1} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}$, the effects of the non-conducting walls on the capacitance are negligible]
